Register Here - Forms tab http://atlanticriders.ca/We are excited to announce the Harvest Hoofbeats Ride. Ride the beautiful-marked woodland trails along the valley’s South Mountain. Harvest Hoofbeats Ride is perfect as an introductory to Endurance riding or as a challenging conditioning ride in a safe and supportive environment. As an ACTRA-sanctioned ride, we are welcoming riders from NS, NB and PEI and encouraging riders to sign up as ACTRA members although membership is not necessary to participate.
The ride consists of your choice of a 12-mile or a 25-mile marked trail where riders present their horse for a Vet check at the start, mid-way and end of ride. Horse-rider combinations are timed and awards and prizes are provided.
Make it a weekend and arrive Friday night for the “Hoofbeat Movie Night and Social”, Saturday competition and trailer out on Sunday at your leisure after another ride on these legendary trails!
